Overall good experience. Clean with quite a large bathroom. Bed was also very comfortable. Conveniently located by the train station and next door to a convenience store.

Great location but not the value expected
VERY expensive for the area and was nothing special. The front desk was a mix of rude to good service. I used google translate to check in since no-one spoke english. The typical tiny room had a western bathroom with a (toilet only) door that opened up and hit the bed...the bathroom didn't have a fan...The shower had a separate door entry and the sink was in the main sleeping area. The room came with breakfast, but it smelled horrible and we did not partake in that food, even if it was free. This was the most expensive hotel of our four week stay in Japan and it was not worth the money. The restaurant described as on-site was hosting a private party and not open for dinner the night we arrived so count on convenience store food and train station vending machines for meals - there are no shops or other restaurants nearby. It was literally just outside the train station and two train stops from Disneyland, so I'd give it a high rating for convenience. Lesson learned: Had we known how poor a value it was, we would have stayed in downtown Tokyo (for less money and access to restaurants) and taken the longer train ride to Disneyland. It's a great place for families with small kids that need to be carried because of it's close proximity to Disneyland and being just outside the train station.

Thank you for your stay at this hotel and for your feedback. We sincerely apologise for your dissatisfaction. Your comfort and satisfaction is always our top priority, but on this occasion we were not able to achieve that goal. We deeply regret that we did not meet your expectations in many areas, such as the attitude of the front desk staff, the English language, the cleanliness and facilities of the rooms and the quality of the breakfast. We will work hard to improve our staff training and services to ensure that this does not happen again in the future. Regarding the location of our hotel, we are glad to hear that you felt that the proximity to Disneyland and the train station was an advantage. Access to Disneyland is one of the selling points of our hotel, so we are glad that you appreciated this. We regret that your stay with us was an unpleasant experience for you, but we hope that you will have the opportunity to stay with us again. We will do our best to serve you to your satisfaction next time. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.

This is an excellent location for anyone visiting the Tokyo Disneyland resort. It's ¥170 and two stops away with breakfast included or the option of two convenience stores located within. The only unexplainable issue I had was I returned home to find my door was left propped open by the cleaning staff. I returned at 10 PM and have no idea how long it was propped allowing access to anyone. Note: No items appeared to be missing but a bit concerning to know anyone could've toured my room without consent.

Only one or two staff could feel comfortable to speak English in full sentences. Right next to Keyo JR line; but should take local train since it is a small station.

Convenient Budget hotel for visiting Disney Parks
Great convenient location for access to Disney Parks. Hotel is connected to the JR train station and Lawson's Convenient Store. Tiny room standard for Tokyo but we didn't spend much time in the room anyway. Its about a 30 min ride to Tokyo Station.

Rooms were very clean. Breakfast is not western style so in the future I wouldn’t purchase this option. It was a very tiny buffet but great quality and a nice staff working in the restaurant.

The staff was more than helpful. The Clark Masashi Yamani (John) went above and beyond assisting us. He was kind and attentive. Breakfast was Asia style. Rooms were very clean. The public transportation system was literally a few steps away. If traveling on the metro be advised that it gets packed!

It was the best price.
It was satisfactional staying in this hotel. Over all, it had nothing to say, and it was very good. Especially, the location is perfect for people who want to visit TDL or TDS. One thing to say is the "room size" although it is the average size of business hotel.

Does the job
A lot of people stay here for access to the Disney parks - and for that it's perfect! Tiny room but perfectly liveable. Breakfast is available very early, and although it's more 'lunch' type food, it sets you up for the day! Hotel a bit run down, but all in all it's fine.

Perfect for short stay for going to Disney
So we only stayed there for 4 nights and it's a good hotel if you need a place to sleep. The rooms are small for any family over the size of 2. Possibly 3. We were two adults, a 6 year old and 2 year old and it wasn't bad for a place to sleep. They window did have mold on it but after telling the hotel staff it was cleaned that day. Breakfast was included. Food was good but expect a Japanese breakfast not American style. (Fried fish and chicken, rolled egg, pickled veggies, salad, rice, soup and toast) Good showers. Extremely hot water so be careful. Beds are harder than American ones and ask for additional pillows. One really good thing is it's attached to the train station so close to getting on the train and only 2 stops from Disneyland. Has a 24 hours Lawson's with great selections of food and snacks. Low rating just because of the comfort and mold but not bad to use just to sleep. Oh and we stayed at the old one. A newer one is down the way from it.
Size of beds and housekeeping set up dolls so cute ^_^

Convenient for going to Disney
The hotel is close to station and convenient for those who are going to Disney. Reasonable price. But it's a bit dusty in room although it's clean overall. The room is tiny, not suitable for family but good for budget traveller.

Staff are amazing.
Great place to stay if you're looking to relax before Disneyland. Only two stops, hotel is literally a minute walk (if that) from the station. Staff are incredibly helpful. Even with a language barrier, they were so helpful. They even printed out a map to show us where the nearest 7/11 was. 10/10 would recommend. ありがとう‼︎

The hotel was well priced and a great location being close to Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea. The rooms were tiny - the only place to open a suitcase was on the bed. Bathroom was small also. No English TV but that is surprisingly common in Japan. Overall thought it was good value for the price which also included a good buffet breakfast.

Definitely value for the price they are giving. Clean rooms. Strong Wifi. No swimming pool though. No amenities nearby but Shin Urayasu is just a station away and there are malls and restaurants there. :)

Good location
Three highlights: 1. This hotel is near the JR station and easy to find. 2. Good communication with the staff. 3. They would keep guests' luggage before and after check out; not every hotel offers this service in Japan.

Great Value!
I picked this spot due to the location. It is 2 stops away from Disneyland Resort. The price was great for what we needed, which was a spot to keep our luggage and sleep at night. When we stayed, it included a FREE breakfast at the restaurant attached to the hotel. It also had a Lawson's, convenience store, that was open 24 hours. The room itself had a decent sized bed which was very comfortable, a clean bathroom and enough space to hold 2 luggages. TV, you had to pay for. AC worked great. The Wi-Fi was was strong, it would even reach to the train station next door. The train station was also another reason i picked it, it is located right on the Keiyo Line, which goes straight to Disneyland. when I say next door, it literally around the corner of the hotel. overall it is a great value for a great room. i would definitely recommend staying here if you need to save money!

Good for Budget Disney Travelers
This is a simple hotel in Chiba 2 train/subway stops away from Tokyo Disney. Convenient and cheap if you want to go to Tokyo Disneyland or Disney Sea. It's right beside the Ichikawa-Shiohama Station in Chiba (like a 10 second walk). The JR line that stops by there goes also straight to Tokyo Station (about 25 min). There's a convenience store right beside it and they serve breakfast buffet in the morning in a small restaurant connected to it (eggs, sausages, kimchi, coffee, etc.) - nothing too elaborate, but good enough to get you started in the day. There doesn't seem to be much to do right around the CVS Bay hotel other than hop on the train and go to Disney, Tokyo, or other places. It's also convenient to use for business travelers who might need to visit the nearby factories/businesses. The room is tight. They don't have any extra closet space or places to store luggage, other than beside/under the dresser. So this isn't meant for those with much luggage. Check in time is 3pm. They might let you check-in early, but it depends if your room is ready. So this is a good place for those who 1)Travel light, 2) Want to go to Disney, 3) Want to stay outside of Tokyo proper and just ride the train in for 25-30 min. The hotel staff don't even have a map of the area they give out like other hotels. Their English is very limited, so it may not be too convenient if you don't speak Japanese and want to ask a lot of questions about the area or what to do.
